MAYPIELD'S GIFT TO
RIP VAN WINKLEVILLE
Catcher nnd Tlilrd Baseman's, In
ferior Work loses Gnmo to Hones
' dulo by Score of 0-6 Griffin, of
Scranton, Twirls a Star Game.
Billy Miller Gets His Bumps.
Eleven Hits Great Work of
Michael Walsh, of Toronto Team.
An Interesting Game.
The curfew in Itln Van Wlnklpvllle.
over Ihe Mooslcs, will be rung at 9
o'clock tonight, an hour later tlinn
UHUnt: the sidewalks will not be taken
in and the lights won't go out until
that time. Billy Miller's team returned
to the town ot everlasting sleep with
a canal boat full or triumphs. Their
trip or three days was a grand suc
cess, a masterful achievement and a
Klorlous loop-the-loop finish. Monday,
by a. hair's breadth they won from the
Jermyn team; yesterday before dinner
they really did win a substantial vic
tory from the Archbald "Kids" by giv
ing little Willie Dougher his bumpety
humps, and In the afternoon on Dutty's
field, Sam Mendelsson's team, from
Itfnylleld, to make the canalers feel
pood, presented them with the final of
the series. If this Isn't some pumpkins
for Billy Mlllerville, then call It off.
The game with Mayfleld In the after
, noon was lost by the poor work of
' Catcher John Meehan and Third Base
man Daniel Meehan. The former made
n wild throw, which let In two runs;
Michael, the catcher, had four passed
nails, which piled up the scores. Only
:two of the nine runs made by Hones
dale were earned. Mayfleld earned four
of Its six. This determined the real
merit of the playing of both teams.
Griffin, of the semi-professlonnl team,
twirled for Mayfleld, and he pitched a
Btar game. Eight hits were what he
gave, but they were scattered and were
of little value but for the errors behind
:hlm. He had speed to loanat a high
aate of percentage, and he made the
Honesdalers swat nine times. His pitch
ing was lessened in Its effectiveness by
the circumstance that Catcher Meehan
;was not quite the man to hold him.
Balls that were made hits might have
been strikes had Grlflln the confidence
that follows from a catcher on the
same standing as himself.
; Miller dusky Billy did the slab
stunt for his team. And Billy got his
bumps, jars and jolts. He was slammed
for eleven safe ones, and they were all
to the good. There were three two
baggers, one three-bagger and a home
run. Here was enough to win a few
games. The hitting, however, was done
by a ffw men. "Walsh, Plannery one
of the "Pets" Grlflln and Qulnn did all
the hitting, save Maynard, who made
a base on a hot drive that could not be
fielded. "When any of these men
slammed the ball and got their bases,
there was no one on the team to rein
force them. Miller had any easy lot of
batters before him. They did not seem
to be able to hit anything. It was one,
two, three swats and out. For this
treason, at the end of the game he had
'twelve strike-outs to his credit. 'Twiis
the greatest cinch that Billy ever
struck, the poor stickers from May
fleld. Griffin, on the other hand, had the
much-touted swatters of the Honesdaie
team where he wanted them, and as
before suggested, with a catcher in
'whom he had sufficient "confidence, he
-would have pitched shut-out ball. His
speed was chained down on this ac
count at the latter end ot the game, as
1t was not safe to sail them In too fast;
there was the danger of passed balls.
Accordingly, there were more hits the
.last few Innings than during the rest of
the game. Grlflln has to his credit the
.striking out of Billy Miller three times,
Catcher Vetter three times and Bennle
Hesslipg twice.
As an example of the weakness of
the Mayfleld batters and to show the
pudding that Billy Miller was feasting
on throughout the game, the ninth in
ning may be cited. The score Was 0-5
In Honesdale's favor, and they had had
their last inning. Walsh opened with
ft single, advanced on another by Flan
nery, and came home on an error by
Third Baseman Vetter. who clayed
with Maynard's grounder. Flunnery, in
the meantime, got to third and May
nard stole to second. With no man out,
It seemed possible to at least tie the
score. But, oh, my! Qulnn came to
bat and fanned, Dan Meehan followed
suit, likewise J. Meehan. One, two,
three and It was all over.
"Mike" Walsh, of Mayfleld, just
home from the Toronto 'Eastern leaguo
team, was In the game, and gave one
of tho best exhibitions of Individual
playing that has ever been seen on
Duffy's field. His brilliant work set
the rooters afire with enthusiasm and
made it almost tho one topic of tho dis
cussion of the game last night. His
batting average for tho game was 1,000.
Out of five times at bat, he had four
hits, and was given a base on balls,
He had a single, a three-bagger, a
home-run and a single,' In the order
named. His baBe-runnlng was dashing
rifld his demeanor, throughout, was an
inspiration to the pla'yers about him,
rttfd a satisfaction and pride' to the
itfbters. "He's a. "ball player," was tho
iwauimau&verdtet, of the. crowd,
"oTTnosIx funs made by Mayfleld,
"Walsh"mado four. He made a remark
Wo.catalwof a. short. left field fly from
IGolden's bat. He Just scooped It and
;fell overfill a heap, but clung to tho
jrpherSld. ,"

Jilts, a" two-bagger and a single. Mur

CRESCENTS TO PLAY TODAY.
A Strong Team from Scrnnton to Be
on Duffy's Field.
It will be good news tp the cranks
to learn that there will be a game on
Duffy's field this afternoon between
the Crescents and u team from the
central city, Scrnnton. The game will
start at the customary hour, 3 o'clock.
Just who the "Pets" avIU go up
against is hard telling. They have
played every kind of a combination or
a team from the Electric City that
could be arranged by the "Foxey
Grandpas" of that town. Every team
that has come from Scrunton this sea
son has had one or more players who
were on the team that came before.
The men In the Electric City who seem
to have it in for "Our Pets' have sent
us the best they had down there, to be
trimmed; to it will be good guessing
that will name the players of today's
team. At any rate it will be a good
one, and the cranks are assured ot a
good afternoon of the national game.
It will be the best kind of news to
the cranks to hear that it Is the ex
pectation to have "Mickey" Walsh in
today's game. He will fill one of the
places made vacant by the loss of
Rosier and Loftus. Flannery will come
In from center to go behind tile bat, and
Walsh and Jlmmle Crane will go in the
outfleld. With Cuff to complete the
Held, we will have an out garden that
will be unapproachable. With Walsh
heading the list, we will have a rat
tling batting order In Emmett, Cuff,
Flunnery, McTlerney, Crane, Murray
and Morris. "Our Owney" will pitch.
The presence of Walsh on the team
will be additional inspiration to the
team and 'will give a spirit to the game
that will be sure to delight the cranks.
NOW FOR FOOT BALL.
Old Indians Heady for Any Team
in This Part of the State The
Players.
The old Indian foot ball team Will be
"Our Pets" during the gridiron season
and already the pig skin kickers are
avoiding barber shops and drawing to
gether the nerve centers in their faces
and all parts of their anatomies. It is
going to be a great season for the local
stars who never In the past took water
or defeat from any strong limbed ag
gregation, who do not Intend to get
on the outside of such medicine tills
year or any future year. Armors are
being polished up and Saturday the
ambitious will be out for practice on
Duffy's field.
The Indians this season will be better
than ever If signs count for anything
and already a defiance has been issued
to any team in the state. As for
Honesdaie If It wants a practice game
outside their own ping pong culm
field arrangements might be made. The
including of the Rip Van Winkle town
Is a joke.
The following men will be out for
practice: Hadglns, Cogglns, McDonald,
Mason, McAndrew, McGregor, J. Han
sen, Warren, G. Hansen, Price, Loftus,
Gorman, McLean, Hyland, Kllkullen,
McIIale, Crance, (Captain.)
Itussell Jones will manage the eleven
this season. The name of the team
this year has not been decided upon
as yet.

sented in a happy spirit, and It sym
bolized the respect and esteem of tho
veterans for their comrade', and at
the samo'tlme testified tho hope that
tho scion of his house may become a
stalwart, loyal citizen of this great
republic and uu honor to his well
wishers, i

horse became frightened nnd mado a
dash to go west. Mr. Shannon gave a
clutch nt the reins and hung on. The'
horse tore down Sulem avenue to River
street, disregarding all of the restrain
ing influence exerted by the dead
weight of the man, who held fast while
he was thumped over the pavement. At
Main street, Mr. Shannon was forced
to leave go, and was thrown heavily.
Near the new coal chutes the nnlmol
collided with a pole, vhlch checked his
speed and called a halt on his wild
career.
When Mr. Shannon and his friends
took an Inventory of his condition they
discovered lacerated flesh and bruises
nbout his arm and limbs that will cause
him some discomfort and pnln for sev
eral days. He suffered considerably
from the shake-up he received by be
ing thrown when he became entangled
In the reins and had no way of pre
serving himself from the Inevitable
toss.

he was replaced by Fleming, who held
the canallers down to six hits during
the nine innings he pitched. It was a
12-lnnlng game. Dougher was hit for
eight safe ones in three innings. It
must be honestly said that Honesdaie
played against odds, as the umpire
Charles Burke, of Archbald, not
Michael Burke, of Jermyn, the Gnffney
